The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth and upon every bird of the heavens, in everything that moves on earth and in all the fish of the sea; in your hand they are given…However, your blood which belongs to your souls I will demand, of every beast will I demand it; but of man, of very man for that of his brother I will demand the soul of man.
